★★★★★ this game is amazing! + some suggs :)
Sat Feb 25 2023 zen_trashthis game is great and incredibly addicting. i love the NFL draft process and the concept of team building, and this game does it all so well. not to mention it is an iOS game (there are not many iOS games that i enjoy) and it is incredibly energy efficient. kudos to the creator!
if i were to make any suggestions, i think increasing the salary cap every year would be a nice thing to have. the NFL salary cap normally raises around 20m every year. the reason i say this is because it can be frustrating at times working with a big QB contract while also trying to retain players at important positions.
would also be nice if we received compensatory picks for losing good players in free agency like in the NFL. it’s a bit unfortunate when you can’t pay a super high rated player and you have to let them go, and you get nothing out of it. one sneaky way around it for the user is to just offer the player a 1 year contract with low guaranteed money and then trade them off for a ton of draft picks, but that feels like cheating lol
other than that, i think it would be nice to have something like a practice squad. there have been many times where i want to develop low-rated players who have potential but i just don’t have the space due to roster limitations. it would be great to have a place for players to develop and be elevated if there are ever any injuries.
that’s all. thanks for making such a great game, even though it has taken over my life!
★★★★★ Started off fun
Thu Mar 23 2023 Nig DugSo I will say when I first got this it seemed actually really fun. The trading, free agency and just general GM aspect is honestly really good. However the simming of the games and watching them genuinely is awful. Firstly so many penalties it’s actually absurd. There’s like multiple automatic first down penalties called every single drive whether it’s defensive holding, roughing the passer, unnecessary roughness, etc to the point it’s actually just annoying to watch. Second the decision making makes absolutely no sense. I had one game I was down 10 with 4 minutes left on the opponents 40 and my team punted?? Then the very next game I had a 4th and 17 at the opponents like 25 easily in FG range and my team decided to go for it, obviously not making it. Then later that game down 21-7 made it to 4th and goal at the 3 and they kicked a FG. Completely throwing the game. Just none of this makes sense at all
Edit: After continuing to play this game it gets worse and worse. I do not recommend playing unless lots of fixes are made. Penalties are still awful. And I’m like 99% sure your player overalls and team overalls genuinely don’t matter at all. I have played about 10 seasons built my team to an 89 overall the next highest is around 84. And my team consistently is losing to and sometimes getting blown out by absolutely awful 75 overall or less teams even lost one 31-5 against a 68 overall team
★★★★★ A Can’t Miss Football Game
Mon Dec 01 2025 Shauns506I’m not one to leave reviews, nor have I ever even left one on a mobile game. However this game is incredible, the in depth expansion of it, friendly UI, and smooth gameplay with no crashes or any issues of the sort is incredible! This is something rare to find from a mobile game, and has me wanting more for the next game of the series. It takes strategy and season planning a huge step ahead compared to other games. It doesn’t feel way too unrealistic like Madden does with specific playbooks that are set up for more success. But this rather makes you understand that any playbook works, of course with the fact that it depends on your roster and what you’re aiming for to choose a fitting style on both sides of the ball. Highly recommend this game! This is hands down the best management game out there for football, and even basketball as I just got that as well and I’m not even a basketball fan, just love this style of management.
★★★★★ Great game but the new update made the draft confusing in blindaccessibility mode
Tue May 06 2025 Lucky 10382I love these types of games and I am super into this game in particular. I am blind and playing this game in voice over mode which is the accessibility setting for iPhones. This game is quite accessible which was a nice surprise. Almost everything is labeled. The main notable exception is the middle tab at the bottom of the page. It’s just labeled as tab and then says 3/5. The Tab to the left is labeled team 2/5 and the tab to the right is labeled league3/5. I like parts of the new update. The mini camp update is interesting and helpful. The draft however is so much harder to figure out in the accessibility mode I’m using. I can’t emphasize how much harder it is to figure it out. I’ve gone through 4 drafts i’m finally comfortable enough to use the new draft feature, but for my personal preference I was able to navigate the old draft feature much better.
★★★★★ Absolutely great game
Mon Jun 26 2023 This app is poo.Love this game. I’ve been playing since PGM2. I’m currently in year 2102 on my current save. Only thing I really think needs improvement would be the scouting. It’s really hard to build a dynasty due to the scouting. I’ve had great scouts that rated several players highly that I drafted and ended up getting terrible ratings. I’d love to see multiple position scouts as well. In example, head scout specialty would be entire o-line instead of specifically C,OG, or OT. Or specialize in receiving or blocking WR and TE. Same for defense. I’ve had great success playing on Hard as I’ve won 23 championships with a score of 1,744. I’ve done so mostly by managing contracts to creat cap space, and sign highly rated veteran players, then switching teams to one looking for a rebuild and repeating the process. I’ve won a championship with 11/32 franchises. Will be looking to build a dynasty soon to try and change the dynamic, but is hard to do so with poor scouts.
★★★★★ Addiction plus
Fri Oct 17 2025 Dre2426This game is absolutely addicting. I could sit here and play this game while I’m at work or on a road trip for just hours on and trying to become the best general manager and really try to build the best football team. I have so much fun with this game on this app and it’s so mind addicting that you just wanna sit and stay on the game for so long. I can’t believe this game has been made and I absolutely love this game. The only thing I wish it did is try to do more with the coaching, for example, when I simulate and I have like a West Coast kind of offense the running game still isn’t the best cause I know that the West Coast office is built off a short passes and playing off the running a lot but other than that, whoever made this game did a phenomenal job and I hope they continue to improve this app because I want to keep playing it
★★★★★ Done. Deleted
Thu Apr 24 2025 Mavericks52I played this game in the past, the previous versions. I remember really enjoying it. I downloaded this one, took over a garbage team, and built them into contenders. There was 1 year I had the best team absolutely no question. 94 overall team, the best coaches in the game, and we lose by 3 in the championship game by an 87 overall team that did not even have good coaching. But whatever, I moved on. I still have not won the championship after maybe 6 seasons or so because it’s so hard to stay under the cap when your QB wants $40m/yr. But the nail in the coffin was in the draft I’m trying to replace my 32 year old QB taking up like a quarter of our salary cap and I draft a QB scouted as an A, projected A+ , projected top 5 pick, and I select the dude just for him to be a 55 overall with slow development??? Dude that’s insane. I get busts happen, but there’s no way. And no, I didn’t have great scouts, because God forbid you have a good coach, he wants $10m/yr which is half your staff salary and you have 8 other positions to fill!!
★★★★★ Some Great, Some Issues
Sun Mar 24 2024 The CitativeThe draft system, negotiating, and in-season stuff is very solid and fun. Most of the game is fantastic. The only thing I don’t enjoy is the coaching system. A lot of times you’ll get screwed if you don’t have your coaches on the same page which makes sense, but I think there should be some kind of mechanic where the head coach defers the schematic stuff to the coaches, that way you aren’t forced to hire 73 ovr coordinators when there are 99 ovr coordinators available for the right price. A couple of ideas: 1) there could be a new type of head coach, the “CEO” type 2) have some kind of agreeableness stat where a coach is more or less willing to change tendencies based on who his other coaches are 3) have the philosophies of the coaches be adaptable towards how the roster is constructed, at least to some degree. Love the game, keep making it great!
